Resident Evil 8 is one of the most eagerly awaited games this year so we cover it extensively in articles and provide new information about it to our followers. After we told you a previous article about mysterious and suspicious characters in the game and their roles. It is time to shed light on some of the secrets in the demo, which was recently launched exclusively for PlayStation 5 owners, since not everyone has been able to play the demo, so it is necessary to know all about things that may have missed even those who played the demo.
1- Something huge is imprisoned in a cage
While you are wandering around the basement of the palace and its cells, at the beginning of the demo, you will hear a fishy and frightening sound coming from somewhere around you, and suddenly the noise rises, which makes you think that something is catching up with you and this raises your panic and makes you want to get out of the basement as soon as possible. In fact, the source of the sound is different.
One of the cells was closed with wooden panels and when you approached it, it turned out that it was the source of the noise, and by peeping through the opening between those wooden panels it appeared that there was a werewolf imprisoned in a cage in that cell.
2-year 1958
There is a message that you will find around the beginning of the demo. It seems that it was written by someone who once worked in the palace and talks about his bitter experience in it. What was striking was the year of this letter, in which it says that mysterious events were occurring in the palace in 1958 and describes the treatment of the palace residents with brutal servants. This raises many questions about when the demo events took place.
3- The dance of death
In the room above the cell, there is a tape player inside the "Danse Macabre" tape, or the Dance of Death, a famous classic. Some say that her choice was due to her appalling character, but we think that her position in this place hints at the connection of the plot of the story with the concept of revival. Where the dance of death consists of a dead person who calls representatives from all walks of life to dance with him to the grave, and they usually include a pope, an emperor, a king, a child, and a worker.
5- The people of the palace and the village are afraid of something outside!
That message, which was left by one of the minors, told us about an incident that happened one day with a maid when she opened a window in the palace and the daughter of Mrs. Demetrisco screamed at her and was so angry that she hit her with a knife in the face, and that night the worker heard shouting sounds coming from the basement. This indicates that the residents of the palace cannot leave it, or that they do not want the light to penetrate the windows, even because they are, of course, vampires. And maybe that's why the tall woman wore that huge hat.
It is not only the lady and her daughters who avoid going out, but also the residents of the village that is isolated from the outside world because of sorcery and witchcraft. We see them locked in their homes and do not leave them for fear of the monsters that resemble werewolves who lurk outside the inhabitants.
6- Holding the bones
During your inspection of one of the rooms that are located on the floor above the basement, you will find a necklace of bones on one of the tables. If you examine it, you will know that it belongs mainly to the heroine of the demo and it aims to cast evil spirits, and this contract can indicate that the character that we control with the demo is a resident of the village because such Superstitions are common among groups such as those that make up the village population. The decade may also imply that the demo events take place long before the contemporary events of the Resident Evil Village game.
7 - The statue is behind one of the closed doors
In the demo, there are a lot of closed doors that we cannot enter but we will definitely be able to do that in the main game. Looking from a window near one of these doors will make us see a statue that looks like a tomb or shrine, and its design appears as if there is a woman surrounded by people kneeling in front of her. Could this be "Mother Miranda"? In general, whether she is or not, this definitely confirms that this figure of the statue is a sacred female who has followers who worship her.
8- A list of the candidates and those who were rejected
On the table next to the fireplace in the palace hall, you will find a sheet of paper written on it, a group of names divided into two groups, one for the candidates and the other for the rejected, and these names are most likely for the people who were kidnapped and brought to the minors in order to know which of them is qualified to serve the enemies' goals in the game and which of them is rejected because it cannot, for example. Turning them into strange creatures or a biological weapon of some kind. Such a document was found near the Baker family's home in the last part. Are these potential projects for Umbrella Organization, for example?
9 - Winemaking from exotic ingredients
During your tour of the palace in the demo, there is a door that you have to open by finding an eye and behind this door, you will find a piece of paper in which the wine made by the Dimitrisco family, named after Sanguis Virginis, is praised and it is said that the technology used in making this wine dates back to the time of the fifteenth century and in order to give it an intense taste The wine is mixed with the blood of the virgin maids, which explains why they were kidnapped and tortured. Talking about the 15th-century re-raises questions about the duration of the period in which suspicious events take place in the palace and the village.
10-Is Lady Dimitrescu a Tyrant?
It is circulating among all that this lady belongs to the vampire and her family, but there are those who think that she is more than just a vampire, especially with her exaggerated height, she is longer than Mr. X and Nemesis, they refer to the appearance of the Umbrella symbol in the previous game show engraved on an element made of stone and the logo is surrounded by four other logos, including a horse, a mermaid, a sun and another belonging to Demetrisco, as it is the same one on the rose on her dress or the insect that surrounds her daughters during the fight.
The presence of the symbol means that Umbrella has a central role in the events, and what sparked this speculation more is the last scene in the game demo where Demetrisko appears facing her victim and with long claws coming out of her hand, reminiscent of the Tyrant creatures that we saw in the previous Resident Evil series, it may be another Tyrant monster or For example, something made by Umbrella?
What does the game map tell us?
Let us move away from the demos and shows here and turn to the game’s map that was revealed through the contents of the Collector’s Edition. It gives us a glimpse of the places we will visit in the game and it appears that it consists of four main areas:
- Castle Dimitrescu
- House Beneviento
- Heisenberg’s Factory
- Moreau’s Reservoir
Next to each region there is a symbol or slogan, and it is strange that these slogans are the same that I told you about in the last paragraph surrounding the Umbrella logo. This suggests that there is a major leader that we may encounter in these areas, for example the Heisenberg plant, who is the brother of Mrs. Dimitrisco? Also, next to Moreau’s Reservoir, there is a monster within a lake, and this reminds us of the monster of Del Lago, one of the leaders we encountered in the fourth part. This may be an indication of the existence of a link between the two games and God knows best.
And what remains most suspicious of this map is the presence of the Umbrella logo spread around it, even there is a strange logo at the entrance to the village is X-shaped wings and in the middle there is an embryo and we all know that children often formed the basis of biological weapons projects in the game like Sherry, Natalia and Evelyn The core of the next project. As if this game might tell us about the origins of the company or its origins.
These are the most prominent secrets that the demo and the game show may tell us. Do you have special theories about the story of the game and its relationship with Umbrella or biological weapons, according to your point of view? And the biggest mystery remains is the role of Chris in everything that is going on, and why the child was kidnapped?
